A fever is a rise in your body temperature. eCollection 2022 Jul. In particular, fever was reported in about 72%98.6% of patients, usually lasting <7 days [4, 710]. Patients with saddleback fever appeared to have good outcomes regardless of the fever. Would you like email updates of new search results? PLoS Negl Trop Dis 2012; 6(8): e1760 10.1371/journal.pntd.0001760 While it has been reported that complications of COVID-19 occur in the second week of illness, the significance of these 2 patterns of fever with regards to the development of complications is unknown [4]. Your body temperature can vary depending . Disclaimer. Available at: Ministry of Health (MOH) Singapore. Viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites can cause infections. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein levels should be measured in the initial workup of a patient who has prolonged febrile illness without a clear source. 8600 Rockville Pike Edupuganti S, Natrajan MS, Rouphael N, Lai L, Xu Y, Feldhammer M, Hill C, Patel SM, Johnson SJ, Bower M, Gorchakov R, Berry R, Murray KO, Mulligan MJ. Singapore reported its first imported case of COVID-19 in a traveler from Wuhan on January 23, 2020, followed by its first locally transmitted case on February 7, 2020 [2, 3].

See permissionsforcopyrightquestions and/or permission requests. In patients with a prolonged febrile illness, a minimum diagnostic workup should be performed before classifying the disease process as a fever of unknown origin. However, as the number of patients with prolonged fever requiring ICU admission is small in this cohort, further studies should be done to prove this correlation. The elevation of circulating IL-1RA may reflect overactive IL-1 activation, which has been reported to associated with severe outcomes in COVID-19 [24]. The 18F fluorodeoxyglucose has better uptake and is cleared more rapidly than older modalities (e.g., gallium Ga 67 citrate), but it is costly and not widely available.14, Liver, lymph node, or temporal artery biopsy may help establish a definitive diagnosis.3,19 A prospective study of 192 patients found that biopsies produced up to a 35% diagnostic yield (about 10% to 35%), especially if performed later in the evaluation when infection is less likely, and malignancies and noninfectious inflammatory diseases are more common.2 Liver biopsy, with a diagnostic yield between 14% and 17%,5,19 can reveal granulomatous hepatitis and determine its cause, which could be infectious, inflammatory, or neoplastic processes.22,27 Lymph node biopsy is most useful in diagnosing lymphoma, infectious diseases, and granulomatous diseases.19,27 In patients 55 years or older, temporal arteritis causes more than 15% of cases of FUO, so biopsy should be considered.5,15,18, Bone marrow biopsy is diagnostically useful, particularly with neoplasm and infectious disease, especially tuberculosis.19,27 One study of 280 hospitalized febrile patients found that bone marrow biopsy was helpful in reaching a diagnosis in nearly 25% of the 130 patients who underwent biopsy.41 Conversely, bone marrow aspiration and culture have a diagnostic yield of only 0% to 2%.3,5,15,22,41. 2013 Oct 20;20(1):75. doi: 10.1186/1423-0127-20-75. But normal body temperature can range between 97 F (36.1 C) and 99 F (37.2 C) or more. 2020 Oct 28;21(1):897. doi: 10.1186/s13063-020-04819-9. Patients who tested positive were not discharged until they had 2 negative PCR tests 24 hours apart [13]. Those with prolonged fever had a median duration of fever (interquartile range [IQR]) of 10 (9-11) days for prolonged fever cases, while fever recurred at a median (IQR) of 10 (8-12) days for those with saddleback fever. Communicable Diseases Surveillance in Singapore 2005. The fever itself is generally harmless and probably helpful. Sixty-nine percent of them were male with a median age of 34 years. JAMA 2020; 323(11):10619. This corroborated well with our findings of increased hypoxia in patients with prolonged fever. . sharing sensitive information, make sure youre on a federal PLoS One.

All Rights Reserved. One case with prolonged fever had concomitant infection with ventilator-associated pneumonia, with Klebsiella pneumoniae grown from his endotracheal aspirate on day 8 of ICU admission (day 15 of illness). Testing for antinuclear antibodies, rheumatoid factor, human immunodeficiency virus, Epstein-Barr virus, cytomegalovirus, purified protein derivative (or interferon-gamma release assay), and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies, as well as measurement of the creatine kinase level, can suggest other infectious sources and common noninfectious inflammatory disease etiologies, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and vasculitides. In addition, IP-10 has also been reported to be associated with increased viral load, lung injury, ICU admission, and mortality [21]. In general, fever is defined as a temperature > 38C (100.4F). If there is no clear source of infection, then further testing should follow. Plasma fractions were isolated from blood samples of COVID-19 patients collected during the acute phase (median post-illness onset, 6 days). 2014; 8: e2777 10.1371/journal.pntd.0002777 Conclusions: Prolonged fever beyond 7 days from onset of illness can identify patients who may be at risk of adverse outcomes from COVID-19. 2022 May 20;15:2575-2587. doi: 10.2147/IDR.S355064. [Open Forum Infect Dis 2020;7:ofaa375]. In contrast, cases with saddleback fever showed no significant change upon repeating their laboratory tests. Methods: For cases with prolonged fever, investigations were repeated beyond day 7 of illness, and for cases with saddleback fever, investigations were repeated at point of fever recurrence. Common causes of FUO are listed in Table 2.6,1523 Typical subgroups used in the differential for classical FUO are infection (20% to 40%), malignancy (20% to 30%), noninfectious inflammatory diseases (10% to 30%), miscellaneous (10% to 20%), and undiagnosed (up to 50%).1,46,1418,2224 Noninfectious inflammatory diseases commonly include connective tissue diseases, vasculitides, and granulomatous diseases.16,17 In developed countries, the noninfectious inflammatory diseases and undiagnosed groups comprise a higher proportion of FUO cases.5,10,15,17 Underdeveloped countries have higher rates of infection and neoplasm.6,24 Drug fever is implicated in 1% to 3% of FUO cases16 (Table 320,21,25,26 ). Based on this study, patients with saddleback fever who remain well can be monitored in the community, while patients who have fever for >7 days should be admitted for closer monitoring.

Adverse outcomes were hypoxia, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, mechanical ventilation, and mortality. Fever of unknown origin is more often an atypical presentation of a common disease rather than an unusual disease. Although prolonged and saddleback fever have been reported in dengue fever, there are no specific studies on their significance in dengue. None had symptoms of urinary tract infection, thrombophlebitis, or Clostridioidesdifficile diarrhea. -. Qiu H, Wu J, Hong L, Luo Y, Song Q, Chen D. Arend WP, Malyak M, Guthridge CJ, Gabay C.

This suggests that in patients with prolonged fever, close monitoring for deterioration should be instituted, while patients with saddleback fever who remain well and do not require supplemental oxygenation are unlikely to require close monitoring in the hospital. Background: This can happen when your body is fighting an infection. Blue and red represent low and high concentrations, respectively. To our knowledge, this is the first study to examine the association between the patterns of fever and outcomes in COVID-19. Repeat laboratory investigations and CXR were done for those with prolonged or saddleback fever and collected. Mucosal bleeding, anorexia, diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea or vomiting, lethargy, rash, clinical fluid accumulation, hepatomegaly, nosocomial infection, leukopenia, higher neutrophil count, higher hematocrit, higher alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST), higher creatinine, lower protein and prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) were significantly associated with prolonged fever but not platelet count or prothrombin time (PT). Approximately 12% to 35% of patients die from an FUO-related cause (generally infection or malignancy), yet of those whose conditions remain undiagnosed, most recover or have a benign course with a good prognosis.5,22.

In this study, saddleback fever was defined as temperature >37.5C with defervescence of at least one day, followed by a second peak lasting at least one day. Among these patients, 12.7 percent had prolonged fever (median interquartile range [IQR], 10 days) while 9.9 percent had saddleback fever, with fever recurring at a median IQR of 10 days. For cytokine profiling, the Mann-Whitney U test was applied to ascertain significant differences in immune mediator levels between patients experiencing different fever patterns. 2 A diagnosis of classic KD is made in patients with prolonged fever (five or more days) and four or more of the following principal . However, this view of fever is merely an oversimplification as a growing body of evidence now suggests that fever represents a complex adaptive response of the host to various immune challenges whether infectious or non-infectious.

RSV is a contagious illness that infects the respiratory tract and can lead to more severe infections like pneumonia or bronchiolitis. IL-1 is dual function cytokine that can act as both a transcription factor and a damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP), which can be released by necrotic cells to promote and exacerbate inflammation via IL-1R1 [30]. A, Heatmap showing the relative concentration of cytokines across patients with different fever patterns. Oxford University Press is a department of the University of Oxford. In addition, as these patients with saddleback fever tend to do well, there is also no need for repeat laboratory testing or chest X-ray, as the results are unlikely to change management or clinical outcomes, they said. A larger cohort might help to improve our understanding of these patients. Duration of fever was prolonged with increased age. In conclusion, we reported on the prevalence, risk factors, cytokine profiles, and outcomes of patients with COVID-19 who had saddleback or prolonged fever. Clipboard, Search History, and several other advanced features are temporarily unavailable.

A, Heatmap showing the relative concentration of cytokines across patients with different fever patterns. This suggests that in patients with prolonged fever, close monitoring for deterioration should be instituted, while patients with saddleback fever who remain well and do not require supplemental oxygenation are unlikely to require close monitoring in the hospital, explained Ng and co-authors. Print 2021 Jan-Mar. There was no difference in types of diagnoses for those who met the strict 1991 definition compared with those who received a diagnosis in less than three weeks.10 Therefore, FUO may be assumed when no reasonable diagnosis is reached after an appropriate inpatient or outpatient investigation.2,6,1017 Table 1 compares the evolution of the definition of FUO.2,3,6,7,1017, Other subtypes of FUO are nosocomial, neutropenic, and human immunodeficiency virusassociated.7 These subtypes have different approaches to evaluation and are beyond the scope of this article.17, The etiologies of FUO have changed over time because of shifting disease patterns and new diagnostic techniques.14 There are more than 200 diseases in the differential diagnosis.4,15,17 In multiple case series, however, the etiology of FUO is limited to several dozen causes, and patients often have an atypical presentation of a common disease.2,6,18. Conti P, Panara MR, Barbacane RC, et al. The most common subgroups in the differential are infection, malignancy, noninfectious inflammatory diseases, and miscellaneous. [The] lower IP-10 level [with saddleback fever] is consistent with the finding that saddleback fever cases tend to have better clinical outcomes than prolonged fever cases, they noted. Plasma fractions, MeSH A dysregulated immune response in COVID-19 has been postulated to lead a deleterious cytokine storm [12]. The results of this study can be used to optimize placement of patients with COVID-19. Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) situation report101. Front Cell Infect Microbiol.

Refining the global spatial limits of dengue virus transmission by evidence-based consensus. While prolonged fever was associated with a higher rate of ICU admission vs controls (11.1 percent vs 0.9 percent; p=0.05), saddleback fever was not, despite both being associated with hypoxia. The .gov means its official. All authors have submitted the ICMJE Form for Disclosure of Potential Conflicts of Interest. Prolonged fever lasting more than 7 days after illness onset can help physicians identify patients at high risk for adverse outcomes from COVID-19, according to a study. An official website of the United States government. The differences in cytokine and chemokine profiles among [the three groups] suggest that different immunological responses could result in the differences in the clinical phenotype observed, said Ng and co-authors. Teleconferencing is often used to monitor these cases for potential deterioration. IL-1 is a pyrogenic cytokine that plays a central role in inflammatory diseases like arthralgia [23]. Cytokine and chemokine concentrations from an additional 23 healthy controls who did not have COVID-19 were also analyzed for baseline comparison. Biphasic Zika Illness With Rash and Joint Pain. This study demonstrates that prolonged fever may be associated with various warning signs and more severe forms of dengue (SD, DSS, DHF), while saddleback fever showed associations with DHF. Repeat CXR was not performed for cases in the control group and 1 case of saddleback fever. When compared with controls, both prolonged and saddleback fever were associated with hypoxia, with the highest rate seen in cases with prolonged fever (27.8 percent and 14.3 percent vs 0.9 percent for prolonged and saddleback fever vs control, respectively; p<0.01 and p=0.03 for each respective comparison). If noninvasive diagnostic tests are unrevealing, then the invasive test of choice is a tissue biopsy because of the relatively high diagnostic yield. Careers. Fever duration was longer in patients 6 to 12 months old and 12 to 18 . The levels of other immune mediators measured were not significantly different between groups. and transmitted securely. Abbreviations: ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; BP, blood pressure; CRP, C-reactive protein; LDH, lactate dehydrogenase. COVID-19 and sinus infections share several symptoms like nasal congestion, fever, and coughing. When compared with controls, both prolonged and saddleback fever were associated with hypoxia, with the highest rate seen in cases with prolonged fever (27.8 percent and 14.3 percent vs 0.9 percent for prolonged and saddleback fever vs control, respectively; p<0.01 and p=0.03 for each respective comparison). Comparing the difference between prolonged fever cases and saddleback fever cases, we found an increased IL-1 level and lower IP-10 level on admission.

Prolonged fever of unknown origin: a record of experiences with 54 childhood patients. Patients with prolonged fever had higher induced protein -10 and lower interleukin-1 levels compared with those with saddleback fever at the early acute phase of disease. National Library of Medicine The different prognoses for these 2 groups of patients have implications for the distribution of increasingly burdened hospital resources given the exponential rise in cases worldwide. This site needs JavaScript to work properly. Although DHF and SD were more likely to occur in patients in those with saddleback fever, DSS was not. Physicians may consider stopping antimicrobials if all investigations are unyielding and patients remain hemodynamically stable. A. Concentrations of 45 immune mediators in plasma were quantified using a 45-plex microbead-based immunoassay. The differences in cytokine and chemokine profiles among control patients with fever7 days, patients with prolonged fever, or patients with saddleback fever at the early acute phase of illness suggest that different immunological responses could result in the differences in the clinical phenotype observed. bOnly 1 sample of paired values available.
